SYNOPSIS
recite [ option... ][ infile [ outfile ]]recite -Help

DESCRIPTION
The recite program is used to read english text and speak the words from the workstation's speaker.By default, the standard input is read and the english text is spoken from the speaker. If a file name is given on the command line, the text is taken from the file rather than the standard input. If a second file is named, a ulaw encoded file is written to the named file, rather then emitting it from the speaker. This file will be compatible with Sun's audiotool(1).
OPTIONS
